George Gissing Quotes

"The first time I read an excellent work, it is to me just as if I gained a new friend; and when I read over a book I have perused before, it resembles the meeting of an old one."

"Flippancy, the most hopeless form of intellectual vice."

"That is one of the bitter curses of poverty; it leaves no right to be generous."
